Description

Please confirm the following:

  • I have carefully read the README
  • I have searched through the issues page and didn't find a similar feature request.(Including issue that has been closed)
  • Easydict has been upgraded to the latest version
  • I understand and agree to the above, and understand that the project maintainer has limited energy, issues that do not follow the rules may be ignored or closed directly

Feature description

Can you please improve language selections and add last used languages on top, so I can switch faster between them?

Use case

Also it will be great if it will be possible to type language name to find it from dropdown menu. And the last idea is that you can add information bar that will show if translation services are supported with that language or not.

Proposed solution (optional)

Research direction
Examine the existing language picker UI component in Easydict (likely in SwiftUI or AppKit). Modify it to store recently used languages in UserDefaults and display them at the top of the dropdown. Add a search bar to filter languages. For translation service support info, integrate with the existing service status data. Check comments for any guidance from the assignee.
